Bren, great post!

I totally agree with you that it is a wonderful game with so many variables that make it different for each of us. I think I said in another post that people have given up too early and I was having a really hard time understand why there were issues with training. I am right there with you on that one! I truly love it and all the tweaks have added even more interactions that are great - I find new things all the time and love to try different actions.

I understand the day/night desire, I just wish the work/non-work hours were able to be user specified or trained through interaction. There can still be day/night with that dynamic. That would make it the most absolutely perfect casual game in my eyes.
